Teemu Pukki scored the only goal in Finland’s 1-0 win over Greece on Thursday evening, but it was Rangers’ Glen Kamara who really stole the show.

Pukki scored from the spot as the Markku Kanerva’s side continued their impressive start to Euro 2020 qualification.

They currently sit second in their group with four wins and one defeat, and no one has been more crucial for the Eagle Owls during that time than Kamara.

He was at his very best again on Thursday, dominating the middle of the park in a 4-4-2 formation, as he was offered a bit more freedom to roam forward with his midfield partner sitting slightly deeper.

Not only did the Rangers man win the penalty that decided the match, he also completed every dribble he attempted (five), per SofaScore. Greece simply couldn’t deal with his agility, acceleration and close control.

His passing was nothing short of supreme too, completing 94% of his efforts and providing one key pass, while converting the only long ball he attempted.

And he did his bit defensively too, making two tackles and two interceptions. In total, he won the ball back seven times for his side.

Steven Gerrard has a whole host of midfield options at his disposal at Ibrox, from the youthful exuberance of Joe Aribo to the experience of Scott Arfield and Steve Davies, and who could forget the ever-improving Ryan Jack.

Because of this, Kamara has only started seven games so far this season.

Based on his performances at international level though, the 23 year-old may just be the best of the bunch, and deserves a proper run in the team to strut his stuff in Glasgow. A nice headache for the manager to have.
